Barcelona coach Xavi Hernandez said on April 15 that his team's Champions League quarter-final, second-leg clash against Paris Saint-Germain would be similar to the first-leg thriller.
The five-time champions edged Luis Enrique's PSG side 3-2 in a Paris blockbuster on April 10 and are aiming to reach the semi-finals for the first time since 2019.
Xavi said the second leg at Barcelona's temporary home, the Olympic Stadium on Montjuic hill, would produce more of the same spectacle on April 16.
"We're not a team that will sit on our lead. We want to take the ball off PSG and win the game," Xavi told a news conference.
"I hope we are at our best, they will test us to the limit - I see a game very similar to the first leg.
